Hi All

I'm a nice normal guy in his early 30s who's never had a long term relationship and a few short term. I have interests and don't feel I meet the right sort of person for me.

I recently went out with a girl from work for just over 1 month. She's similar to me in the sense she's looking for a long term relationship and is nice and quite laid back. We had 3 very intense dates - a big emotional connection - and I went back home after the first date saying to myself I am going to marry this person. I know thats strange but I had never experienced that connection before. On the 4th date she invited me around to hers for all of saturday i.e. going out for a walk and chilling in evening etc. To cut a long story short we broke up as I didn't have the physical attraction for her to match the emotional connection we both felt. She had noticed this and ended our dating.

We've talked since we broke up and that was the overriding reason. She agreed we had a big emotional connection but indicated that although she was attracted to me she felt I wasn't to her. I wanted to go out with her a bit more and see what happened but I think she felt a bit hurt that I didn't fancy her.

Question: I miss her company a lot but not sure whether something like physical attraction can be overcome?

if the connection was strong enough between the two of you then you would be able to overlook this problem.
